hey jonahs, looks damn good so far, super impressed. last year was by far my best year progression-wise because there were jumps all over the mountain, so i could practice stuff pretty much wherever i went. pleaassee keep this up!

one other suggestion- a size jump that is in between the roo ridge size and the dancefloor size to step it up in smaller increments. i never had the chance to see the terry's return line, so maybe that fit the bill, but the suggestion still stands. keep it up man

I was at Alpine over the weekend and this stuff looks AWESOME in person! This year will be amazing for park at Alpine, given the features already in the making and those planned but not yet built

Holy shitballs, so stoked on all the new jibs. They all look so fun, please set up the wacky stuff asap.

My only request would be a better selection of jumps. They were bad ass last year but just got redonculous by the end of the year. Really fun, just hard to learn new stuff with minimal consequences.

Also, PLEASE get that natural feature section on shortcut dialed for most of the season. What seemed to try and come together looked bad ass, just was never buffed out from what I saw. It could trump nstars crappy "stash" (although have you seen the work that jhole has been puttin into their "stash", bad ass).

It would be sweet if in the near future there could be a pipe, it always used to be so prime at alpine. How bout remaking the quarter pipe with a hole cut in the middle that used to be around years back, that was bonkers.

Bring back Nicks run!!!
Okay maybe I just miss my high school Alpine Days. havent been back to Alpine since :( (cant say i have ridden at any resort 10 days since then, so its nothin against alpine, although I hated working there), but things are looking good Jonahs!

You posted a map last spring with park areas highlighted, and I remember a place right next to Alpine Bowl Chair highlighted. Is that really going to be anything? Lapable on alpine chair?
You should post that map in this thread if everyone hasnt seen it.

Looks sweet though, Im definitely going to try to head back to Alpine at some point this year somehwow.

Glad everyone's stoked on the new stuff.

^^ Nick's is Done. The last jump on Red was as good or better, so no need for it. Better landing too.

For those asking for a pipe, I'm working on it. We don't have a cutting implement anymore. Hopefully very soon.

More pics coming...

Features are looking sick! Could we possibly get a 10x10 or so butter pad? They work great for messing around on and learning new tricks and would be awesome for us instructors/ coaches at alpine for teaching/ promoting more freestyle.

Also a step up to step down jump feature (like you built for level 1) would be sweet in the main park.

Never had a chance to shoot on that puppy.

I was in the area about the same time Berman was, but not being open on the weekdays killed our chances unfortunately.

Landing definitely looks a hell of a lot better. Always thought Nicks had kinda a short landing.

Suggestion-

Would it be possible toput a solid medium size jump line anywhere(20-45 ft)? The big jumps youmake every year are hands down the best in Tahoe. I think a lot of peopleare looking for something smaller then the big jump line but also big enoughpractice/learn switch tricks, new flips and off axis stuff to eventually taketo the big line.

I am a big fan ofthe Park Lane jump line at Breckenridge if you have ever been there or thetriple jump line in the players/ powderbowl medium park at Heavenly. Both these lines have jumps ranging from 20-45ft

I'm having fun with whatyou have put up so far. Thanks for making alpine a great place to ski
